Course Description:
Provide first aid in an education and care setting is a relatively new Unit of Competency. The unit is designed to meet the workplace First Aid requirements for educators, support staff, carers and parents.
The Australian Children’s Education & Care Quality Authority (ACECQA) has endorsed HLTAID012 as satisfying all educator requirements for first aid, anaphylaxis management and emergency asthma training – as outlined by National Regulations.
This means that if you work in education or childcare you no longer have to complete three separate courses to satisfy your First Aid requirements, this course covers it all.
This course is suitable for anyone working in long day care, family day care, preschool and outside of school hours (OOSH) care services.
